WORK ON THE WORD 4!

WORK ON THE WORD 4!
I start quoting 2 Timothy 2 vs. 15: Study to show yourself approved to GOD, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. As a child of GOD, we are to know what GOD’s word says, means and work on them. It is one thing to know and it’s another thing to do what the word is saying. Many read or hear GOD’s word and it falls on hard hearts, many falls on rocky hearts, many fall on thorny hearts; and some fall on fertile hearts. The hard hearts hear the word; but the devil comes immediately, and takes away the word that they have heard. Mark 4 vs. 15: And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown, but when they have heard; satan comes immediately and take away the word that was sown in their hearts. The rocky hearts represents those hearts, who hear the message with joy, but like young plants in soil, their roots don’t go very deep, and though at first they get along fine, as soon as persecution begins, they wilt. Mark 4 vs. 17: And have no root in themselves and so endure but for a time, afterwards when affliction or persecution arises for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended.

         

Moreover, the thorny hearts represent hearts of people who listen to the word and receive it; but all too quickly the attractions of the world, the delights of wealth and the search for fame and success comes in and crowd out GOD’s word from their hearts, so that no fruit is produced. Mark 4 vs. 19: And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lust of other thing entering in, choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. What is choking GOD’s word in your hearts? Is GOD’s word bearing fruits in your life? The last is the fertile heart, this heart represent heart of those who truly accept GOD’s word and produce a plentiful harvest for GOD, that is the word is fruitful to their soul, spirit and body. Mark 4 vs. 20: And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it; and bring forth fruit, some thirty fold, some sixty, and some a hundred. We are to have a fertile heart for GOD’s word, so the word will be deeply rooted in us. Ask GOD to help you with a fertile heart, so his words can dwell richly in you and produce fruits. Kindly, share with others. It is well with us…

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES Hannah made a vowed which GOD honors and remembered her.   1 Samuel 1 vs. 19-20: And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD and returned and came to their house to Ramah; and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her. Wherefore it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying because I have asked him of the LORD.      What a wonderful GOD! She asked for a man child and He gave her exactly. She should have asked for sets of twin or triplet, which GOD would have given her. There is nothing GOD cannot do, He cannot be limited. With Him all things are possible. Mind you Hannah fulfilled her vow by giving the son back to him. Many make vows and don’t fulfill it. Be conscious of these, GOD’s way are not the ways of men, His thoughts are not ours. GOD has his own timing. His timing doesn’t match with the timing of ...

TOLERANCE

TOLERANCE I start quoting Robert Green Ingersoll “Tolerance is giving every other human being every right that you claim for yourself ”. This is a virtue every man scarcely has nowadays. Men nowadays find it difficult to tolerate each other. In all religions, Christians are to exhibit tolerance the most; because CHRIST stated that it’s the second greatest commandment. Matthew 22 vs.38-39: This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. But the reverse is the case now, most Christians exhibit intolerance. They can’t tolerate their Christian brothers talk less of those outside their religion. This is awful and not so good. Hebrews 13 vs. 1-2: Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware. Abraham exhibited tolerance, he suddenly noticed three men coming toward him and ran to meet them and welcomed them. He gave them water to wash their feet’s...

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES 2! An earthly father will be delighted and willing to do more for his son or daughter, when she/he shows gratitude. How will you feel when you give something tangible to a person and he didn’t show gratitude? You will feel unwilling to do more for such person. Our heavenly Father deserves to be shown gratitude for all He has done in our lives. Thank GOD for what He has done in the past, what He is doing presently and what He will do in the future. There is no little testimony; you just have to appreciate GOD for his faithfulness and marvelous deeds. Marvelous deeds like, the gift of life, which is the greatest of all blessings, good health and sound mind, sleeping and waking up. Many slept and never woke up, while many find it difficult to sleep. We have to see reasons to appreciate GOD; doing these will gladden Him to do more for us.              However, problems, trials, challenges might be in...
